So it's February 3, 2012 and it has been probably two months since I last posted something...but that's okay, shit happens. Last semester was so insane. I literally just quit taking care of myself. I quit doing the things that I love doing. I quit working out, I quit eating right, baking, and I quit blogging. I know I didn't blog too regularly before, but I absolutely love it. I love putting my thoughts out there. I also know that when you look at me you would never guess that I love working out, but I do. It makes me feel so wonderful and happy. I love that every time I work out I am reminded of this. For the past three semesters I have taken a yoga class. This semester I am taking a vinyasa yoga class. It is a 2 hour yoga class every Wednesday...and it kicks my ass, but I feel elated after. On other days, even though I usually do some sort of yoga, I do TurboFire. It's a cardio workout that has kickboxing in it. Chalene Johnson has some of the best music in it and it honestly is fun. I like making it a game for me. Chalene is also the creator of TurboKick and TurboJam. One thing that makes me so happy about her workouts is that she is so energetic and she gives pep talks through the whole thing. I would love to become a TurboKick instructor, but I can never make it to the class at the campus gym and I'm afraid my weight would cause people to judge my abilities. Maybe one day I'll get to do it.
Anyways, back to the point. So it's a new year and I haven't made a New Years Resolution in years, and I'm not going to make one this year. Instead I'm going to make promises to myself.
I promise to....
start working out again (goal: 5 times a week).
eat better.
worry less.
know that the time I workout is my time.
Those are my promises to myself. I have to start taking care of myself more. I have to put myself first.
Remember:
If you don't take care of yourself first, you cannot take care of the people you love. Take care of yourself first!
